BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to designs and methods for preventing, stopping or slowing myopia progression.

Myopia, also known as short-sightedness, is a refractive condition wherein the overall power of the eye is too high, or too strong, causing light from distant objects to focus in front of the retina. This is perceived by the viewer as blurring of distant objects, with the amount of blurring being related to the severity of the myopia. This condition is often first seen in childhood, and usually noticed at school age. A progression, or increase, in the severity of myopia, is usually seen in myopic cases until young adulthood.

U.S. Pat. No. 6,045,578 proposes methods of using on-axis longitudinal spherical aberration (LSA) in contact lens designs to attempt to halt myopia progression. The design approach suggested does not appear to address specific wavefront/refractive power characteristics of the individual eye/or group average data or changes in pupil size associated with close work.

U.S. Pat. No. 7,025,460 proposes methods of altering field curvature (off-axis focal point variation) to try to halt myopia progression. The mathematics behind this approach uses “extended conics” where the simple conic equations have even ordered polynomial terms added to them. These conic and polynomial terms are processed so that the contact lens surface shape of the proposed design produces the required amount of field curvature. This approach addresses off-axis design.

On-axis optical design of the lens does not appear to have been addressed. Pupil size and wavefront changes associated with near tasks were not addressed.

US 2003/0058404 and US 2008/0309882 proposes a method of measuring the wavefront of the eye and correcting the wavefront of the eye with a customized correction to slow myopia progression. This did not include measuring the wavefront for a near stimulus distance and does not appear to suggest considering the difference between the wavefront measured for a far stimulus and a near stimulus. Pupil size changes associated with near tasks were also not an aspect of the design process.

EP 1853961 proposes the measurement of the wavefront before and after near work. The changes in wavefront aberrations are then corrected with a custom contact lens. This does not include the difference in wavefront measured for a far and near stimulus as only the wavefront before and after near work are addressed. It does not consider the pupil size changes associated with near tasks in the design process. Group or population data to create a design to control eye growth are not included.

A more complete approach to slowing or stopping myopia progression is still desired. This is addressed in this specification.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The methods of the invention involve using wavefront data to design and produce contact lenses useful for treating, slowing, and sometimes stopping the progression of myopia. Ocular wavefront data, for both distance and near stimulus levels is collected from a patient using a wavefront sensor such as a COAS (Wavefront Sciences Inc, Albuquerque N. Mex.). This wavefront data is generally in the form of Zernike polynomial coefficients but can also be a set of wavefront heights at specified Cartesian or polar coordinates. A preferred system to designate the Zernike coefficients has been described as the OSA method, in ANSI Z80.28.

The method to design lenses for individuals on a custom lens basis or averaged for populations, or sub-populations. This method can be used to produce a rotationally symmetric design where all optic zone meridians are the same, or a non-rotationally symmetric design where each meridian is unique and the result of wavefront analysis. In some embodiments, known changes in size of the pupil due to accommodation or luminance are taken into account.

A preferred method for generating ophthalmic lens designs is based in part upon ocular wavefront data and includes the following steps.

-   -   1. Ocular wavefront data, for distance and near stimulus levels,         is collected from patients using a wavefront sensor.     -   2. Each wavefront is converted to a refractive power map by         estimating the radial slopes in the direction of the z axis,         defined as the front to back axis, e.g. along the visual axis         through the pupil center.     -   3. Calculating the axial focal lengths (i.e. the intersection of         the radial ‘normal’ with the z axis) and converting the focal         lengths to optical power values (FIG. 1).

In another embodiment of the method, a refractive power map is calculated from the set of estimated wavefront Zernike coefficients using the refractive Zernike power polynomials, Ψ_(j)(ρ,θ), as follows (see Iskander et al., 2007, attached)

$\begin{matrix} {{\hat{F}\left( {r,\theta} \right)} = {\frac{10^{3}}{r_{\max}}{\sum\limits_{j = 3}^{P - 1}\;{c_{j}{\Psi_{j}\left( {{r/r_{\max}},\theta} \right)}}}}} & (1) \end{matrix}$ where c_(j) are the wavefront Zernike polynomial coefficients, r_(max) corresponds to the pupil radius,

$\begin{matrix} {{\Psi_{j}\left( {\rho,\theta} \right)} = \left\{ \begin{matrix} {{\sqrt{2\left( {n + 1} \right)}{Q_{n}^{m}(\rho)}{\cos\left( {m\;\theta} \right)}},} & {m > 0} \\ {{\sqrt{2\left( {n + 1} \right)}{Q_{n}^{m}(\rho)}{\sin\left( {m\;\theta} \right)}},} & {m < 0} \\ {\sqrt{n + 1}{Q_{n}^{m}(\rho)}} & {m = 0} \end{matrix} \right.} & (2) \\ {with} & \; \\ {{Q_{n}^{m}(\rho)} = {\sum\limits_{s = 0}^{{{({n - {m}})}/2} - q}\;{\frac{\left( {- 1} \right)^{s}{\left( {n - s} \right)!}\left( {n - {2\; s}} \right)}{{s!}{\left( {{\left( {n + {m}} \right)/2} - s} \right)!}{\left( {{\left( {n - {m}} \right)/2} - s} \right)!}}\rho^{n - {2\; s} - 2}}}} & (3) \\ {and} & \; \\ {q = \left\{ {\begin{matrix} {1,} & {{m} \leq 1} \\ {0,} & {otherwise} \end{matrix}.} \right.} & \; \end{matrix}$

Ocular pupil sizes are also estimated either directly from the wavefront measurement or by an independent pupil measurement (e.g. using a pupillometer). If the pupil is measured independently of the wavefront, it should be measured under similar lighting conditions and with the patient focused on a far target and a near target that produces the same accommodation stimulus levels as those used when the wavefronts were measured (for example 0 D and 3 D accommodation stimulus levels). To get wavefront maps of sufficient diameter, measuring the wavefront in moderate to low luminance conditions is preferred. The far and near wavefronts should be measured in the same luminance conditions, less than or equal to 50 candela per meter squared, for example

The ophthalmic lens 1500, as shown in FIG. 15, made according to the invention have the following parts and characteristics:

-   -   a) a convex surface with a central optic zone 1502 surrounded by         a peripheral zone 1504 which is further surrounded by an edge         zone 1506, and a concave surface which rests on the patient's         eye;     -   b) the lens power at any location in the optical zone is         described by the sum of the apical distance averaged wavefront         derived power plus a correction which is derived from a single,         partial multiple or multiple of the difference between the         distance and near average wavefront derived power at each         location (x) and the difference between the apical near and         distance wavefront derived powers, the optical lens power is         useful in controlling or slowing the progression of myopia.

The data files are put through a screening process where the wavefront Zernike coefficients, pupil sizes and refractive power maps are analysed to identify trends in the wavefront dynamics and remove outliers or invalid data (eg. using the Wavefront File Management software).

If multiple wavefront data sets have been collected (as is preferred), the refractive power maps can be averaged to reduce random errors and variability associated with factors such as microfluctuations of accommodation.

The next step in the process is to generate an average refractive power profile. This is calculated by averaging all considered semi-meridians of the refractive power data (i.e. calculate the average in terms of radial polar coordinate, disregarding the azimuthal/meridional angular coordinate). This profile can be generated for individual or group mean data. If it is assumed, as is preferred, that the azimuthal frequency is not likely to be of significant interest above 4^(th) order, then there should be a minimum of 8 meridians. Preferably there should be at least 32 meridians.

Shown in FIG. 2 are profile plots of refractive power data in terms of radial coordinate (distance from centre). Data from all of the measured semi-meridians is shown on the left. This can be used for non-rotationally symmetrical designs. Average, maximum and minimum refractive power profiles are shown on the right. This average can be calculated in the manner of any conventional arithmetic averaging, including but not limited to arithmetic mean, median or geometric mean. This can be used for individual customized or population based rotationally symmetric designs.

In FIG. 3 are the average right eye refractive power profiles for individuals and the group average for an accommodation stimulus at 6 m distance (i.e. accommodation stimulus is 0.17 D). This is approximately distance (far) vision.

In FIG. 4 are the average left eye refractive power profiles for individuals and the group average for an accommodation stimulus at 0.33 m distance (i.e. accommodation stimulus is 3.00 D). This represents near vision.

The group average refractive power profiles for both the distance and near stimulus levels are shown together in FIG. 5. These data are then used to determine the required refractive power profile of the lens for myopia control.

Power Profile Driven Ophthalmic Lens Design Methods:

Different data sources can be used to derive a contact lens design for myopia control. Examples include:

A customized design based on the individual subjects data, or

A group design based on a particular sub-population of data (e.g. young Asian children aged 10-16 years of age), or

A general population design based on all available data (e.g. all myopes).

Additionally, both rotationally symmetric designs or non-rotationally symmetric designs are obtainable using the method of the invention. When data is averaged across all considered semi-meridians (see FIG. 5) it can be used to create rotationally symmetrical designs, or If the data is retained in its semi-meridional form (left panel of FIG. 2), it can be used to create non-rotationally symmetric designs. Non-rotationally symmetric correction forms include, but are not limited to toric, sphero-cylindrical, sphero-cylindrical with higher order aberration correction. Toric includes the correction of both regular and irregular astigmatism.

Further refinement of the design produced according to the invention can be based on the pupil size of the subject (or population of subjects). The natural pupil size for near accommodation levels is typically smaller than that for distance/far accommodation levels. Therefore for an optical design based on foveal vision (on-axis), the change in optical power required to control eye growth based on the near wavefront can be confined to an optical zone diameter corresponding to the smaller pupil present when the near wavefront is measured. Outside of this inner central region, the optical design can revert to one that is relevant for distance vision.

The following are exemplary design methods obtained using averaged data from all of the considered semi-meridians. These approaches will result in rotationally symmetrical designs (no requirement for them to be stabilized to minimize lens rotation).

Method 1:

In the first method, the meridian averaged, near wavefront refractive power is used as the starting point for the design. The design requires an increase in refractive power of the lens (more positive power) with increasing chord diameter from the centre of the lens. The amount of increase in power is designed to neutralize the natural negative power shift that is evident in the group average data for the near wavefront power (FIG. 6). The black arrows indicate the positive power change required. Thus the near wavefront is corrected to a zero power change.

Method 2:

In the second method, the meridian averaged, near wavefront refractive power is again used as the starting point for the design. However the target power change in this case is the meridian averaged, distance wavefront refractive power. The design requires an increase in refractive power of the lens (more positive power) with increasing chord diameter from the centre of the lens. The amount of increase in power is designed to shift the natural negative power shift which is evident in the group average data for the near wavefront power back to the distance wavefront power profile (FIG. 7). The black arrows indicate the positive power change required. If the patient needed a −3.00 D distance correction, the lens power profile in this case would be −3.00 D centrally, at a ray height of 0.6 mm the required increase in power would be about 0.25 D (net power −2.75), at 1 mm ray height the required increase in power would be about 0.5 D (net power −2.50 D). FIG. 7 represents the wavefront derived power profile and FIG. 8 shows a lens design power profile to correct both the central error and the profile going to the periphery based upon the rationale described above. While this example shows the actual design extending out to a ray height of 1.6 mm (diameter of 3.2 mm) it is appreciated that if the wavefront were measured to a larger diameter, the design would extend out further. It is also appreciated that the design could be extrapolated to as far as 4 mm ray height by suitable mathematical methods.

FIG. 8 shows a final lens power profile based upon the method described herein.

Method 3:

In another embodiment of the invention, the meridian averaged, near wavefront's refractive power is again used as the starting point for the design. However the target power change in this case is double the difference to reach the meridian averaged, distance wavefront refractive power. Double the difference is preferred, but the difference can range up to 4 times the distance wavefront refractive power. The design requires an increase in refractive power of the lens (more positive power) with increasing chord diameter from the centre of the lens. The amount of increase in power is designed to shift the natural negative power shift which is evident in the group average data for the near wavefront power back to more than the distance wavefront power profile (FIG. 9). The black arrows indicate the positive power change required. It is also recognized that multipliers of less than unity are useful, for example 0.5 the difference. This may be closer to natural vision for the patient, but still embodies the tenets of this invention.

In methods 1-3, the design power profiles were calculated as follows: The optical power profiles were described mathematically by the equation: PowProf=RPD ₍₀₎ +k _((x))((RPD _((x))+(RPN ₍₀₎ −RPD ₍₀₎))−RPN _((x)))

-   -   Where RPD(x) is the average wavefront derived distance         refractive power measured at distance at a ray height x, RPN(x)         is an average wavefront derived near refractive power measured         at near at a ray height x, and k(x) is any suitable mathematical         function, for example a constant multiplier, the preferred         values for which are between 1 to 2 but the usable range extends         from 0.25 to 4, or vary with x as with an inverse Stiles         Crawford effect. In selected cases, the function RPD can be         replaced with a flat line with a slope of zero. RPD(0) is the         average wavefront derived distance apical refractive power, and         RPN(0) is the average wavefront derived near apical refractive         power measured at near at a ray height x.

In methods 4-6, data from all considered semi-meridians (not averaged across semi-meridians) are used. This approach results in non-rotationally symmetrical designs. These designs must be stabilized to minimize lens rotation.

Method 4

In this embodiment of the invention the semi-meridian near wavefront's refractive power is used as the starting point for the design. The design requires an increase in refractive power of the lens (more positive power) with increasing chord diameter from the centre of the lens. The amount of increase in power is designed to neutralize the natural negative power shift that is evident in the data for the near wavefront power.

For every meridian and chord location where the power is negative, the power will be changed back to zero. This approach is analogous to Method 1, but applied to all locations across all meridians (not just the average meridian data as in Method 1).

Methods 5 and 6:

These methods are also analogous to Methods 2 and 3 (respectively). In Method 5, each location of the power profile that is negative in power for the near wavefront is shifted to match the corresponding point of the distance wavefront. In the vast majority of instances, the distance wavefront will have positive power change at each location, but may in some instances be negative in power change.

In Method 6, each location of the power profile that is negative in power for the near wavefront is shifted by double the power required to match the corresponding point of the distance wavefront. If the distance wavefront power change profile happens to be negative in power at any location, the design approach can be modified to make the default power at this location equal to zero.

Method 7:

The wavefront diameter for a near stimulus, is approximately 3.5 mm (ray height 1.75 mm), while for the distance wavefront it is approximately 4 mm (ray height 2 mm). The power profile within the central 3.5 mm (in this case) can be designed based on Methods 1 to 6 described above. From the edge of 3.5 mm central region to the edge of the optical zone (e.g. 7 mm) the lens power change can be designed to follow the power change derived from the distance wavefront (see black arrows from 1.75 to 2 mm in distance wavefront). If the distance wavefront does not extend to the edge of the 7 mm optic zone, the power progression could be an extrapolation of the distance power profile change or asymptote in power.

This design approach attempts to limit any vision loss associated with the near wavefront correction to control eye growth. It does this by providing correction tailored more towards the distance wavefront for the optical region of the lens (peripheral region of the optic zone) that becomes “active” when the pupil becomes larger when viewing in the distance.

An alternative approach, that does not optimize vision for distance but enhances the eye growth control, is to extrapolate the near wavefront power profile change from the edge of the near wavefront out to the edge of the 7 mm optical zone.

The flow of information to practice this method is shown in FIG. 10.

The application of this method to create a specific astigmatic or toric design is shown in FIG. 11. In FIG. 11A, the power profile that was derived by subtracting the distance minus the near wavefront derived averaged power values is shown. In FIG. 11B, the meridians of a conventional toric lens with a power of −6.00 DS−2.00 DC×135 is shown.

FIG. 12 shows the detailed power profile plots of specific spherical lens designs generated by this method with apical powers of −1.00 DS, −3.00 DS, and −6.00 DS. The profiles shown are the powers on axis and going out into the periphery of the optical zone of the lens.

FIG. 13 shows the detailed power profile plots of a specific spherical lens design generated by this method with apical powers of −9.00 DS, and toric designs of −1.00 DS−1.00 DC×45, and −3.00 DS−1.00 DC×0. The profiles shown are the powers on axis and going out into the periphery of the optical zone of the lens.

FIG. 14 shows the detailed power profile plots of specific astigmatic or toric lens designs generated by this method with apical powers of −6.00 DS−2.00 DC×135, and −9.00 DS−1.00 DC×90. The profiles shown are the powers on axis and going out into the periphery of the optical zone of the lens.
